Hi all,
With OWS4 winding down I am starting to collect thoughts and organize bringing some of this work to GeoServer trunk. There are a few proposals in the works:
http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOS/GSIP+6+-+Track+GeoTools+Trunk
http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOS/GSIP+7+-+OWS+Dispatching+System
http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOS/GSIP+10+-+WFS+1.1+Support
Please read, provide feedback, ask questions, etc...
In the IRC meeting today when I brought this up, it lead to a conversation about configuration and catalog. So I have put together some additional GSIP's:
http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOS/GSIP+8+-+New+Configuration+System
http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOS/GSIP+9+-+New+Catalog
The new configuration system is something that people have wanted for a while and imho will not be hard to implement. Although the devil is always in the details...
The catalog is something that we have been talking about for a while too. And it seems that people are coming up with use cases that fall in line it. GeoSolutions with the ingestion engine, and Refractions with some coverage stuff that is coming down the line.
